http://nunsonthebus.com/As Catholic Sisters, we are missioned to stand with people in need and to be witnesses for economic justice.
Jesus said, "You will be my witnesses not only in Jerusalem but throughout Judea and Samaria, and indeed to earth's remotest end." (Acts 1:8)
The Ryan Budget and Your State
As Catholic Sisters, we must speak out against the current House Republican budget, authored by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI). We do so because it harms people who are already suffering.

I am not Catholic, but I whole wholly support their cause. The republican party simply doesn't care about the poor. I wish they had a facebook page, so I could like it and annoy my self-righteous conservative family members.
